At almost 4 months Molly has turned into a little biting, running away, rebellious terror.

Well, she does still have some good moments, but most of the time she is being a real stinker.

She bites everything and everyone she can, won't mind unless there is a treat involved, and hyper, hyper, hyper. I've been trying to use my "calm, assertive energy" and rewarding her for behavior that I like.

I'd really like to hear that this is probably a puppy phase, and that if I remain consistent with discipline, affection and reward that we will get thru it like we made it thru the "terrible two's" with my son...right???

Thanks for listening.
